As a passenger, if you avoid connecting your
multimedia devices (film, music, video game,
etc.), you will contribute towards limiting the
consumption of electrical energy, and so of
fuel.
Disconnect your portable devices before
leaving the vehicle.
Eco- driving
Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.
Optimise the use of your
gearbox
With a manual gearbox, move off gently
and change up without waiting. When
accelerating, change up early.
With an automatic gearbox, favour automatic
mode and avoid pressing the accelerator
pedal heavily or suddenly.
The gear shift indicator invites you to engage
the most suitable gear: as soon as the
indication is displayed in the instrument panel,
follow it straight away.
For vehicles fitted with an automatic gearbox,
this indicator appears only in manual mode.
Drive smoothly
Maintain a safe distance between vehicles,
use engine braking rather than the
brake pedal, and press the accelerator
progressively. These practices contribute
towards a reduction in fuel consumption and
CO
2 emissions and also help to reduce the
background traffic noise.
If your vehicle has cruise control, make use of
the system at speeds above 25
mph (40 km/h)
when the traffic is flowing well.
Control the use of your electrical
equipment
Before moving off, if the passenger
compartment is too warm, ventilate it by
opening the windows and air vents before
using the air conditioning.
Above 30
mph (50 km/h), close the windows
and leave the air vents open.
Consider using equipment that can help keep
the temperature in the passenger compartment
down (sunroof and window blinds, etc.). Switch off the headlamps and foglamps when
the ambient light level does not require their
use.
Avoid running the engine before moving off,
particularly in winter; your vehicle will warm up
much faster while driving. Unless it has automatic regulation, switch off
the air conditioning as soon as the desired
temperature has been reached.
Switch off the demisting and defrosting
controls, if not automatic.
Switch off the heated seat control as soon as
possible.

Foglamps
In clear weather or rain, during the day or
at night, it is prohibited to switch on the
front or rear foglamps. In these situations,
the power of their beams may dazzle other
drivers. They should only be used in fog
or snow.
In these weather conditions, it is your
responsibility to switch on the foglamps
and dipped beam headlamps manually as
the sunshine sensor may detect sufficient
light.

longer necessary.Rear foglamps

Operating fault
In the event of a malfunction of the
sunshine sensor, the lighting comes
on, this warning lamp is displayed in
the instrument panel accompanied
by an audible signal and/or a
message.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Do not cover the sunshine sensor, linked
with the rain sensor and located at the
top centre of the windscreen behind the
rear view mirror; the associated functions
would no longer be controlled.
In fog or snow, the sunshine sensor may
detect sufficient light. In this case, the
lighting will not come on automatically.
Automatic guide-me-home
lighting
With the "Automatic illumination of headlamps"
function activated, under low ambient light, the
sidelamps, dipped beam headlamps and door
mirror spotlamps come on automatically when
the ignition is switched off.
Activation, deactivation and the duration of the
guide-me-home lighting are set in the vehicle
parameters menu in the screen.
Manual guide-me-home
lighting
The temporary illumination of the dipped beam
headlamps after the vehicle's ignition has been
switched off makes the driver's exit easier
when the light is poor.
